Before: Shri Satbeer Singh Godara & Shri Amarjit Singh
Appellant by : Sri.A.V.Muraleedharan, Advocate Respondent by : Smt.V.Swarnalatha, Sr.DR Date of Pronouncement : 06.11.2024 Date of Hearing : 16.08.2024 O R D E R Per Bench : This assessee’s appeal in 2015-2016 arises out of the order of the Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals) / NFAC vide DIN & Order No.ITBA/NFAC/S/250/2023-24/1056779081(1) dated 04.10.2023 in proceedings u/s.143(3) of the Income-tax Act, 1961; in short “the Act” hereinafter.
Heard both the parties. Case files perused.
It emerges during the course of hearing that the learned NFAC has nowhere decided the assessee’s substantive grounds on merits as contemplated u/sec.250(6) of the Act requiring it to give points for determination followed by a . Smt.N.Saleena. detailed adjudication thereof. Faced with the situation, we deem it appropriate in the larger interest of justice to restore the assessee’s instant appeal back to the NFAC for it’s afresh adjudication, preferably within three effective opportunities of hearing, subject to the rider that it shall be the taxpayer’s onus and responsibility only to file and prove all the relevant facts in consequential proceedings. Assessee’s appeal is allowed for statistical purposes in very terms. Ordered accordingly.
Order pronounced in the open court on this 06th Day of November, 2024.
